A very interesting list of legit words that describe unexplainable emotions. Fascinating. Also found a reddit site dedicated to such words. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCDetdM5XDZD1xrQHDPgEg5w
I generally like to believe that I have a fairly good vocabulary, but a quick trip to a dictionary humbles me immensely. And now, I can add this list to my humbling. I found Onism interesting - who knew that was even a thing, much less to have it be given a name?!?!
as opposed to onanism. It seems the power of words are not determined by the speaker, but by the listener's vocabulary and comprehension. which is why I am a fan of Frank Luntz. (his science, not his politics).
I love geographical dialects and vocabularies. My current favorite is 'brought upsy'...describes a person who was raised with manners.
